Rear ends - NA 300ZX, a "new" source?


Recommended Posts

Thumbing through this month's Sport and Compact Car I came across a blurb that confused me. One of their articles was about a TT 300ZX, a nice car. reading the drivetrain mods I came across something that might be a mistake but then again might not be so I figured I'd ask here...

 

This racer supposedly swapped his rear for the rear in a NA 300ZX to get a lower ratio. Okay, I can understand that. Except the article said he "swapped out his R230 for the R200 found in the naturally aspirated 300ZX"!

 

Is that possible? R200's in the natural cars, R230s in the turbo? Might it be an LSD? Probably still the same mounting mods would have to be done but... Is this worth looking at ya' think? Having not looked at how the R230s even mount I don't know what hassle it would be but I've chatted with at least one person who's done the swap so I'm pretty curious.
